Import Tips
• Verify filament diameter (9-11 microns) and RFL impregnation via lab testing to confirm HTS 7019.65.51.00 classification; obtain supplier certifications for nonconductive properties
• Ensure documentation specifies tire cord use to avoid reclassification; watch for width exceeding 30 cm triggering different subheading
